HER JOURNAL: 8 JUNE 1891,

I BID MY RELATIVES A TEARFUL FAREWELL WITH A HEAVY HEART, I TOOK LEAVE OF
MY NEW COMFORTABLE HOME AND MY DEAR RELATIVES FEARING I WOULD NEVER SEE THEM
ALL AGAIN (IF ANY OF THEM). I FELT LIKE I COULD NOT ENDURE IT. I WENT WITH A.
A. ALLEN AS FAR AS CACHE JUNCTION MET JOSEPH THERE AT MIDNIGHT WE BADE ANDREW
GOOD BYE AND BOARDED THE TRAIN. INA AND HANSIE WERE OVERJOYED TO SEE THEIR PA
AND I FELT THANKFUL TO HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF ENJOYING HIS COMPANY ONCE MORE,
ALSO HAD GREAT PLEASURE IN RIDING 700 MILES ON THE CARS THE LONGEST TRIP I HAD
EVER MADE WE ALL ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH. WE LEFT CACHE JUNCTION AT MIDNIGHT 8 JUNE
1891, ARRIVED AT POCATELLA AT DAYBREAK NEXT PASSED INDIAN RESERVATION, BASALT,
BLACKFOOT, EAGLE ROCK CAME THEN PASSED 40 MILES DESERT NOTHING BUT SAGEBRUSH
ON IT THIS WAS THE LONELIEST PART OF THE JOURNEY, NEXT BEAVER CANYON WHICH WAS
VERY BEAUTIFUL WITH AN ENTIRE CHANGE OF SCENERY TOO PRETTY TO DESCRIBE. THEN
DILLON, MELROSE AND SILVER BOW WHICH WAS PRETTY BUT NOT AS ORDERLY LOOKING AS
OUR UTAH TOWNS ARE. EACH MAN BUILDS HIS HOUSE JUST AS HE WISHES REGARDLESS OF
STREET OR LOCATION WIDE STREETS AND NARROW STREETS AS THEY HAPPEN TO BE. STOPPED
AT BUTTE AT 7:30 TUESDAY NIGHT THIS WAS A VERY MUDDY PLACE THE AIR SO THICK WITH
SMOKE FROM THE MINES AND SMELTERS WE COULD HARDLY BREATHE WE STAYED AT THE DEPOT
ALL NIGHT AND I WAS SICK ALL NIGHT. AT 7:30 WE LEFT THE MUDDY UNHEALTHY TOWN
VERY GLAD TO GET AWAY FROM THE MUD FOG AND NOISE. WE TRAVELLED UP A STEEP GRADE
SOON GETTING SO HIGH WE COULD LOOK DOWN ON THE FOG WHICH LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF
LIGHT FLEECY LOOKING CLOUDS FLOATING IN THE AIR THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I WAS
EVER HIGH ENOUGH TO LOOK DOWN ON THE FOG AND SMOKE. THE AIR WAS CLEAR WHERE WE
WERE. WE PASSED THROUGH 4 LONG TUNNELS TAKING 8 MINUTES TO GO THROUGH THE LONGEST
ONE. INA THOUGHT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH HER EYES AS SHE COULD NOT SEE
NUFFIN AT ALL. WE SAW LARGE HIGH MOUNTAINS ON EACH SIDE WITH SNOW DOTTED HERE
AND THERE AMONGST THE GREEN GRASS. NEXT ELK PARK AND SEVERAL LITTLE TOWNS WITH
LARGE PILES OF WOOD PILED UP FOR SALE. THEN MINES SMELTERS ETC THEN LANCING,
POTENCITY AND HELENA, A RICH CITY NICELY BUILT WITH VERY PRETTY HOUSES BUT LIKE
THE REST NOT IN ORDER NO TREES OR GARDENS WHICH MADE IT LOOK SO LONELY AND DIFFERENT
FROM WHAT I HAD BEEN ACCUSTOMED TO SEE IN UTAH. HELENA HAS 1000 INHABITANTS.
I SAW NEGROES, CHINA MEN, MULATTOS INDIANS AND WHITE PEOPLE ALL BUSY. NEXT SILVER
CITY, SILVER CREEK, WOOLF CREEK AND THE MUCH TALKED OF MISSOURI RIVER, WHICH
WAS A GRAND SIGHT WE TRAVELLED MANY MILES BY THE SIDE OF IT. NEXT HARDY, CASTILE,

CAR WE CONGRATULATED OURSELVES IN GETTING SUCH A COZY PLACE TO STAY SLEPT UNTIL
MIDNIGHT WHEN 2 DRUNKEN MEN CAME IN SWEARING AND VOMITING UNTIL MORNING. I COULD
NEITHER SLEEP NOR LET JOSEPH SLEEP UNTIL MORNING I WAS SO FRIGHTENED FEARING
THEY WOULD TRY TO ROB US OR KILL US BUT THEY DID NEITHER BUT IT WAS A RELIEF
TO SEE THEM GO IN THE MORNING. AT 7:40 WE LEFT SUN RIVER AND CROSSED A LARGE
PRAIRIE WHICH IS SAID TO BE 300 MILES LONG IT WAS COVERED WITH SHORT GRASS AND
PRAIRIE DOGS. DID NOT SEE A TREE ON THE PRAIRIE, NEXT STEELE, PAGAN, CONRAD AND
SHELBY WE PASSED 6 DRY LAKES NOT A BLADE OF GRASS TO BE SEEN THEN WE CAME TO
COUTTS OR SWEET GRASS THE DIVIDING LINE BETWEEN AMERICA AND CANADA WHERE THE
